Ari29 Posted December 27, 2022 Posted December 27, 2022 So if you agree here that Bey is primarily out for herself and only about her coins doesn’t that give some credence to her using BLM and the social climate of that time during LEMONADE.

They think it’s bootlicking or ass kissing to acknowledge that if the Dubai performance is true, she don’t give a damn. like what we supposed to do? Beat her ass to hold her accountable If the Tiffany’s blood diamonds discourse didn’t phase her , this won’t

Mitsouko Posted December 27, 2022 Posted December 27, 2022 Had there been something else this era, we'd have more to share, to discuss, to debate, to opine, to experience together. But since there's nothing to talk about beside an album we all listened to and agree is exceptional, inevitably complaints will rise from the VOID that is this era. Now let's nod, smile, and rank her singles run from 2003-04 and make fake album tracklists I guess since that will mean we're Going Clear in Beyoncetology and must have tighter holes, harder ****s, clearer skin, and masters degrees!

bync Posted December 27, 2022 Posted December 27, 2022 lmao who gives a **** honestly the forced outrage over some performance the way y'all would gladly take $24m to perform anywhere and anything. it's really not that serious

Some of the hive & GP was talking about the discrepancy about blood diamonds after BIK & rightfully so imo. Once the Tiffany’s ad came out and they heard her version of moon river every one moved on.

The way some of you don't read. I do not care about the Dubai concert. I do not even agree with the politics that you shouldn't perform in nations with questionable laws (although there are lines I draw)... I do however respect the stance of those who do care Edited December 27, 2022 by Otter

LOL this exactly like I'm not defending her..... I guess I see how it could be kinda ****** up but in reality it's not doing any real damage and the people who care are just about morals and the desire of being the wokest of them all I really don't care what she does it's her bag and her business she's been giving us performances after performances for 20+ years she'll eventually perform this album like relax lol
